I don't understand This obsession for a stupid score

 

You are on a website dedicated on obsessing on stupid box office numbers (with about 99.9% of it's member being very very remotely connected to those movies in any possible ways if any), that should put you in a specially good position to put yourself in the shoes of someone obsessing on something like a stupid RT score.

Zach Levy is definently getting rave reviews for his work.

I really enjoyed Levy in season 2 of "Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and glad he seems tohave pulled off this role.

I like that from the reviews, the film embraces the basic silliness of the whole idea behind Shazam, instead of trying to make it more "grown up".

I think they were expecting the film to be less divisive?

 

I think you are talking about the other Captain Marvel.

With the high average score, I don't see it dropping below 85 in RT. I think it will end in the 86-88 range.

After BO performance of Venom and especially DC's own AQM, barely fresh, we still care that much about critics?

Gotta have a hook.

Surprised no marketing regarding the first live-action superhero making his 21st century debut.

Feels like Levi is about to be a huge movie star. Pairing him w/ Gadot and Momoa will bring tremendous $$$$

I prolly deserve it for going through too many reviews, but freakin bummed that I got spoiled the ending. 😧

Southeast Asian markets having sneak previews this weekend ahead of next week's release.

WB's confidence can be felt.

Considering Synder is not involved in this movie and it apparently is not gloomy and depressing I imagine it will be a big hit. Hopefully they continue the trend of doing films the opposite of what he did.

Meanwhile, a Marvel director is about to release the most gloomiest and darkest SH movie ever.

Let's wait and see how it plays out. Just because he has a dark suit in the movie...it's too early to judge Spiderman Far From Home.

Yeah I'm not thrilled about that but at least it will be done well. Gloomy, boring, and badly directed don't mix well. Also BVS was gloomy in a different way.

Directors pick dark and grim because they find it more interesting than cookie cutter.

I mean if it's effective sure. Nolan was dark and gloomy but effective. Snyder was gloomy, dark, messy, ineffective, boring, and scattered.

 

Anyways I'm glad he is not a part of those. DC will flourish without him.

I thought it was because the gateway to genre filmmaking is action/horror both of which are all about teeth grinding suspense and hair raising setpieces. If you mean directors in general from drama to comedy...well both do deal in tragedy.

 

OT: where'd you guys hear/read about this Far From Home blurb? or is it some other movie?
